IMHO - without him we would have been far better off and could have had a captain who leads the team. I think he is a bad apple. Every club he leaves improves pretty fast.
My vote would definately have been Barton. Followed by Hughes tbh - he had the time, the money, the window, the bonding camp and has been a failure. Don't let 13 minutes of Liverpool falling to bits fool you.
Barton is as much to blame to as any other player, no more and no less. To single him out is abit wierdly obsessive
You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.
When you look at all the things that have conspired against us, it almost looks like we were always destined to be relegated.
Recently saw a documentry on the the Titanic.
About ten or more seperate things came together leading to the disaster, if any single one of them had not happened, it may have been averted, and feel our season is similar.
Seriously, if Tango and Cash had done the decent thing and fallen on their swords far sooner Warnock could have had a decent war chest from Fernandes - maybe he would have bought the right players to suit his style and also they would have been far more determined players than the prima donnas signed of late.
That fighting spirit might have given Warnock a fair crack with some decent players and who knows what would have happened.

That is my understanding it is not one person or two to blame but many things. Bernie and Tango didnt fund Warnock when they should have, the board for timing of the change of Warnock, as they should never have left it until the 1st week in the transfer windows (should have learnt for the prevoius summer that panic buying is not the best), both managers are not faultless as both have made mistakes either thought bad tactics or bad purchases, the fans at home as they pick on players, moan far to easily and have created a mish mash of an atmosphere, lets face it apart from Chelsea the place has hardly rocked and the players as the disapline and some of the football to say has been sunday league is an understatement.
In fact i would go as far as saying aprt from the away support which has been fantastic i dont think there is any one single element that got us relagated.
Mark Hughes for me, reason, simply because he has had enough time to build this squad and install a winning formula. He spent fortunes around £20m, had 4 months to prepare and still couldn't deliver.
Cant vote......... as its the players with a little bit of the others except TF, how anyone can blame him is beyond me, ok he gambled on MH but if he hadn't he would have got crucified !
Its a mixture of all things but for me right now ill be laying the blame with Cisse. As despite all that had gone on before had he not lost his head twice i think his goals would of saved us.
I thought sacking Warnock was the right decison at the right time but the rot had already set in imho and its just getting worse.
